1/4 cup extra virgin olive oil

  • Drizzle with about 2 tablespoons of the olive oil and sprinkle with half of the garlic and rosemary.
  • Season with salt and pepper & pinch of crushed red pepper flakes (if using).
  • Dollop 1/4 cup of the fig jam (it is difficuclt to spread) all over the crust, being sure to leave a 1-inch border of dough all around.
  • Scatter half of the cheese and prosciutto over the dough.
  • Slide the flatbread onto the stone and bake for about 15 minutes, until puffed and golden.
  • Transfer the flatbread to a cutting board and let cool for 10 minutes before slicing.
  • Repeat with the remaining ingredients to make the second flatbread.
  • Garnish with the sliced scallion and serve.
